The Shaykh : What do you say about this?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : A man went out for a walk outside the town, and he found Bedouins who had come to sell their goods. Should he buy from them or not?
The student: Yes.
The Shaykh : Huh?
The student: ... the operative cause is the same.
The Shaykh : The operative cause is the same.
The student: He did not intend it.
The Shaykh : That is, he did not intend it, but the original prohibition is not only about meeting them. Otherwise, this is meeting them, welcoming them, and saying, "Welcome, may Allah bless you, may Allah bless your buying and selling and your livelihood." The people who buy and pay the price, yes, and please, dinner is at my place after the midday prayer. No one says this is forbidden. The prohibition of meeting them is a prohibition of the intended purpose, which is buying. So it appears that it is not permissible for him to buy. Yes?
The questioner : ... If the crop has been harvested, is it valid to sell it?
The Shaykh : What do you mean?
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : That is, there is nothing wrong with it.
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : Like the one who sold it while it was still in the field and stipulated that it would be cut. There is nothing wrong with that.
The questioner : Shaykh, Shaykh?
The Shaykh : Yes.
